    Default Fuel prices ..



    Just got this 'fwd".. thought I'd share it ..



    Over the weekend, I filled up my car's fuel tank, and I thought petrol
    has become really expensive after the recent price hike.


    But then I compared it with other common liquids and did some quick
    calculations, and I felt a little better.

    To know why, see the results below – you'll be surprised at how
    outrageous some other prices are!


    Petrol (regular) in Delhi: Rs. 50.5 per liter
    Coca Cola 330 ml can: Rs. 20 = Rs. 61 per litre
    Dettol antiseptic 100 ml Rs. 20 = Rs. 200 per litre
    Radiator coolant 500 ml Rs. 160 = Rs. 320 per litre
    Pantene conditioner 400 ml Rs. 165 = Rs. 413 per litre
    Medicinal mouthwash like Listerine 100 ml Rs. 45 = Rs. 450 per litre
    Red Bull 150 ml can: Rs. 75 = Rs. 500 per litre
    Corex cough syrup 100 ml Rs. 57 = Rs. 570 per litre
    Evian water 500 ml Rs. 330 = Rs. 660 per litre
    Rs. 500 for a litre of WATER???!!! And the buyers don't even know the
    source (Evian spelled backwards is Naive.)
    Kores whiteout 15 ml Rs. 15 = Rs. 1000 per litre
    Cup of coffee at any decent business hotel 150 ml Rs. 175 = Rs. 1167 per litre
    Old Spice after shave lotion 100 ml Rs. 175 = Rs. 1750 per litre
    Pure almond oil 25 ml Rs. 68 = Rs. 2720 per litre

    Just wait the worst is yet to come-- the REAL KICKER...

    HP deskjet colour ink cartridge 21 ml Rs.1900 = Rs. 90476 per litre!!!
    Now you know why computer printers are so cheap? So they have you hooked for the ink!

    So, the next time you're at the pump, don't curse our honorable
    Petroleum minister – just be glad your car doesn't run on cough syrup,
    After shave, coffee, or God forbid, printer ink!
